In the last great conflict of the controversy with Satan those who are loyal to God will see every earthly support cut off. Because they refuse to break His law in obedience to earthly powers, they will be forbidden to buy or sell. It will finally be decreed that they shall be put to death. See Revelation 13:11-17. But to the obedient is given the promise, "He shall dwell on high: his place of defense shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure." Isaiah 33:16. By this promise the children of God will live. When the earth shall be wasted with famine, they shall be fed. "They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied." Psalm 37:19. To that time of distress the prophet Habakkuk looked forward, and his words express the faith of the church: "Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labor of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation." Habakkuk 3:17, 18. {DA 121.3}
Study - Biblical Structers. When we look at the structers of how Bible texts are written we can get clear revelations of truth. Many stories we read in Gods word of the prophets and Gods people are acted parables and have application for us here at the end of time
The Sequence of Events – End of Time - Structures of the Bible - Synopsis
Here is the Structure that appears many places in the Bible. The primary application for us today is the three Angels messages Revelation 14:6-13, and the 4th message of Revelation 18:1-24. The 4th message is a repetition of the 2nd message and includes a last message of mercy that offers a link to Christ. Followed by tribulation (Revelation 18:5-8) and every earthly support cut off (Revelation 18:11,18-19). Although 1844 is the primary Judgement hour message there can be secondary application of the judgement hour message

There are similarities of the three fold work to the commandments. The Ten Words
The Hebrew expression, which occurs three times in the Old Testament (Ex. 34:28; Deut. 4:13; 10:4), literally means “ten words.” This is why Exodus 20 is often referred to as the Decalogue, deka being the Greek word for “ten” and logos meaning “word.” These are the Ten Words that God gave the Israelites at Mount Sinai
